OKAY! SAFTEY FIRST! Don't use paper towels they will catch fire and burn. Try using wax paper or white baking paper. Second you can try bouncing the light off a white board or something else to tone it down a bit and make it more diffuse.

Can't see 'em - you need to change your privacy settings. But you need to quit with the digital zoom.
